Share a remote-work success story for a great cause

We'll donate $5 to Year Up for every qualifying tweet shared—up to $200,000

由 Slack 团队提供2020 年 8 月 24 日

The nature of work has been forever changed, but there are countless examples of excellent work being done by newly distributed teams across the globe. From Masks for Docs delivering protective equipment to frontline workers to The Sims team tackling a seemingly normal project under anything but normal circumstances, it’s been inspiring to see so many teams rising to the occasion.

These great examples aside, Year Up estimates that 5 million adults are left out of the workforce due simply to a lack of opportunity. And with the impact of Covid-19, there’s an even bigger gap in access to jobs that allow people to work from home. That’s why we’re partnering with Year Up. Year Up’s focus is on closing the “opportunity divide,” providing young adults, most often under-represented minorities, with the professional and technical skills sought by hiring companies.

The pandemic has massively affected Year Up’s ability to operate and provide participants with the access required to successfully complete the organization’s program. We’re committed to making a meaningful impact in areas like enabling remote training and mentorship—but we need your help.

Now through Sept. 1, share your remote-work success story on Twitter, using #WhenRemoteWorks and tagging @SlackHQ (or simply reply to this tweet). For every tweet shared, we’ll donate $5 to Year Up, up to a total of $200,000. See the official rules below. We hope you’ll join us.

Slack for Good partnered with Year Up to help organize this campaign. Click here to learn more about how Slack for Good is working to increase the number of historically underrepresented individuals in the technology industry.
